There are 68 VMs there that have been created from a template VM that can reach the web with no problems. 66 of the VMs work as they should once I change the names and connect the virtual switch but the last two for some reason show that the NIC card is connected to my internal network and has internet access but I cannot ping yahoo.com google.com etc and TRACERT to one of those fails. anything you guys can think of for me to check would be a big help.

I'm with syvbrewer you need to see is you can ping via ip address. the first thing you want to pull out of the loop is DNS. If you can hit 4.2.2.2 (which is a public DNS server that many admins use to test connectivity because it is easy to remember and type) but not yahoo.com then you know where to start looking. Kind of hard to diagnose a networking issue that could be so broad, so rule out DNS and that will get you started.

I had this happen when I reinstalled my hosts with 5.5. NONE of the vm's that I migrated back to the host would connect to the network. Ultimately, a restart of the entire host allowed me to regain network access.
